    Meta CEO, Mark Zuckerberg not only is a media giant but also a sporting fanatic. While everyone is aware of his love for combat sports, only a few know about his interest in surfing. Like Meta has a knack for launching a new update every once in a while, its maker has a fondness for surfing treacherous waves intermittently. Interestingly, paddling into the ocean helps Zuckerberg stay focused.

    Jesus. What a ham-handed PR piece. He has billions, but hires Temu PR for his humanization campaign. What a complete jackass.

      They do appear to call him “The Eye of Sauron” so, maybe the person writing this wasn’t really interested in making him look good and phoned it in.

    Zuckerberg surfs every morning right before he indulges in his complicated work algorithms, reports the New York Post. Now obviously being an IT giant comes with a casket full of responsibilities

    Dressing up as a thicc Geosha Surfer every morning helps Zuck deal with his daily casket of problems.

        Hey i like vr, I think it’s neat that we had a billionaire pour liquid money on it and make a shit ton of r&d, even if it still hasn’t become a breakthrough killer platform.

        I think it shows spine… Or something.

          Zuck has been nothing but terrible for the state of VR. Oculus was doing fine before Facebook bought them, and since then all they’ve contributed is trying to fragment the ecosystem.

            Nah the Quest 3 (and I’d argue still the 2) is easily the best headset on the market right now.

            Nothing else comes close to the features, quality, and most importantly the price.

            You can hate meta and Facebook and the zucc all you want but they are doing legitimate really really cool things with VR

          I like VR too! But all those billions aren’t going into R&D, they are going into their shitty “metaverse” & exclusivity deals for VR content providers. Meta is just trying to capture the VR market before it properly gets going, so they have a revenue stream like Google & Apple.

          That’s very bad for the future of VR. If they succeed, it will massively dampen the market of possible ventures, and will ensure one of the worst companies on the planet gets even more personal information from everyone.

      He thought it would make an insellable picture. He was wrong. He’s gone the Madonna route, and wears the same clothes when he’s not wanting to be photographed.

    Zinc really is excellent sunblock. Makes you look like a doofus and it gets absolutely everywhere, but you aren’t sunburnt.
